GAAH Goes Around the World!

To study abroad is to experience a different culture, gain a new world-view and possibly learn a new language. It's an unforgettable experience that has the potential to permanently impact one's life. For that reason, we're very grateful to our friends from the Grand Valley State University Padnos International Center for presenting to our neighborhood about study abroad and its impacts on how we perceive the world around us. Grand Valley State alumni who studied abroad in Europe, Japan, Taiwan and China presented to our families about their own experiences and brought some really neat keepsakes for show and tell afterwards! Highlights were having students learn their names in Chinese and being introduced to Taiwanese food!
